Scientific paper

The limitations of direct astrophotography in the infrared range, which are related to a lack of sensitivity of photographic emulsions in this wavelength region, can be overcome with the aid of image-converter tubes. The principles of operation of the image converter tube are discussed and a description is given of the design of a specific image-converter camera which has been constructed to extend the range of astronomical observations at an institute in West Germany as far as possible into the infrared spectral region. The photography of star formation regions is discussed. Attention is given to studies of the W3 complex and investigations of the Omega and Orion nebulas.
